October 7, 2009 – Vancouver, BC – Intranet Connections is pleased to announce a new release of Intranet Connections Intranet 2.0 Software. Version 9.5 of Intranet Connections was released this week and features changes to the core intranet applications that will enhance employee productivity and adds social intranet 2.0 tools that help with collaboration, engagement and employee adoption.

The robust Document Management application within Intranet Connections provides users with the ability to create an unlimited folder structure that is represented by a tree or flat navigation with breadcrumb trail. Also included in the Document Management module are document version control, full-text search, document archiving, user subscriptions, approval workflow, tagging, as well as a comments and ratings system for user feedback. The flexible security structure of the application allows for all corporate documents to be located in a central location with a unified search. Flexible security gives the appropriate users or groups access to sensitive content.

Carolyn Douglas,CEO of Intranet Connections: “Our goal is to improve employee communication through social and collaborative networking, combined with the practical intranet tools that are necessary in assisting employees in their day-to-day duties.”

Version 9.5 also includes a streamlined approach to the management of students registered through the Training Calendar, sub-sites for departments, teams or projects, and a media embedding tool that allows users to add web-formatted video and audio files within intranet content.

In addition to the changes made to the core intranet tools, Intranet Connections also features employee Social Profiles with a mini photo gallery of your co-workers and a Suggestion Box application where employees can go to share ideas, comment and vote. The Discussion Forum has become more transparent and employee profiles and photos are featured with topics, and the intranet home page offers content feeds and widgets that can be moved and positioned to create a portal gateway.
